    I had RTW on order from play.com, got frustrated of waiting so to kill time I decided to find some tips/strategy guides on the net. Google pointed me here.

    I looked for a solution to the "newer nvidia cards/drivers" problem in MTW. (and I'm still looking, but at least a little playing is possible now)

    Clicked 'Commmunity' or something like that on Total War.com and found a link to this nice site. Made my first post a few days later.
    Runes for good luck:

    I really don't remember, but it was probably right after I bought Shogun, and was searching for Shogun-related stuff. I think. But, however I found this place, I'm glad I did, even if I still spend a lot more time lurking than I do posting.

    It all started long, long ago...........
    (this is where the fog and whirly shapes come in- kind of like a dream segue )
    IN THE 70'S....sitting around in the past doing what all teens do -even now- the members of R.F.R. were lost in their snow tunnels that they had just finished digging -in their parents front yard- so they'd have a place to hide and drink their magnum of bubble wine . With no power yet installed -that came later- music was needed to cover the sound of inhalement and abberrant conversation so the gathering members broke out into song and merriment. From that day forward a great Sykotyk tradition and many more gatherings were held to sing, play instruments and create music. Eventually members found a person with a P.A. and a chainsaw Tada- Psycho's Slave Den -

    So us slaves sitting around the fire enjoying bones tossed to us from the .......
    oh ya wrong subject.....

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    I found it through a google search back in the long days of STW and MTW . I just lurked for years till I saw Blue Lotus and Hoggy asking for help...so thanks to him you have to put up with my occasional posts. .....or else I would still be lurking ...damn those lurkers (not really for those that can't take a joke) they should just jump in and enjoy the jaccuzzi.

    Ya that's right LURKERS - for posters there is a free cyber spa membership, massages, gym, time share in Florida Grand Everglades Alligator Hotel , wine and cheese by fire light along the great shores of Lake Superior (ya its winter here but some people like that), subscription to Total War threads published by the posters here at the forum, a brick of green cheese , a poster of the CA staff in TW gear, oh the list goes on and on so LURKERS post its a good THINK!

    Well bye all that was my friday night input...

    When I was a child
    I caught a fleeting glimpse
    Out of the corner of my eye.
    I turned to look but it was gone
    I cannot put my finger on it now
    The child is grown,
    The dream is gone.
    I have become comfortably numb...

    Hard to remember, it was back in the early medieval days
    ....or was it the high period...
    I may have searched on ... AltaVista or something... or maybe I just took the first and best link out of the .com site...

    I lurked for ages until I simply had to... something.... ask a vital game related question? Be a smart-alec?

    Anyway, this place has been my favourite game related site ever since, and for a while it was my favourite argument related site as well.

    while looking for stuff for mtw. just really never bothered to sign up till after rtw. got into replaying some other games I had.
    Do as I say and not as I do, or is it do as I do and not as I say?

    I googled for some totalwar-fansite to get some tips for playing M:TW.

    I looked at the .org and the .com but started browsing the board at the .org as it was optically more appealing (the default skin at that time made it more pleasant to read than the black .com board).

    I liked the very friendly and helpful atmosphere and registered after a couple of days of lurking (first game-site I registered at).
